How does this carrier fasten in the back? Is it more a backpack situation or does it criss cross and latch?

Best baby carrier. Easy to put on, easy to adjust. I’m a petite woman (5’2”), and this carrier isn’t too bulky on me. Securely holds my newborn 7lb - just be sure to read the instructions (or watch the video) about how to put it on correctly including instructions for small infants. Comes with a detachable sunshade which is so helpful! My baby loves it too.

I’m not gonna lie, happy baby carriers led me into the fun and crazy world of BST. I love that they’re hand made in the US. I love how high quality they feel. That you can easily reach the owners or customer support when there is a problem. The blooms are my favorite “neutral” but I have so many other prints and I just can’t get enough. Being able to wear these carriers is definitely a perk to having kids 😂

Amethyst has quickly become a favorite here! It’s the prettiest purple ever and you can’t ever go wrong with an OG

I LOVE the happy baby carriers. I rented one from my local baby wearing group and was immediately in love. After my rental I went out and ordered two of my own. The fit is so comfortable and it is so easy to get on and off. I love the H back design and the hood for naps/discreet nursing. Perfect for family activities and saves my wrists and shoulders! Can’t recommend it more!

This is such a great carrier! Thoughtfully designed for comfort and the fabric is absolutely beautiful! I already purchased another Happy Baby carrier and definitely plan to try an Onbuhimo eventually too.

Love the color and material but the design needs improvement, especially for breastfeeding moms. The strap to tighten the shoulder strap is in the back making it SO hard to reach back and loosen to breastfeed. Also don't like how there isn't a flap to light up and support babies head when they are sleeping..
